We can survive on fruit diet, says chef Ranveer Brar

This fall, Indian television’s celebrity chef Ranveer Brar is launching his first restaurant in Canada. The eatery, Mayura by Chef Ranveer Brar, will open doors for the GTA customers in Brampton on Thursday, Nov. 10.

Brar believes that fruit diet is the only food habit that a human body can survive on for a lifetime.

The chef was speaking at the launch of Belgian Conference Pears in Mumbai.

“If you look at our ancient eating tradition, you will see that ‘Phalahar’ is the only eating habit that gives human body everything that it’s needed. So, I strongly believe that fruit diet is the only food habit that a human body can survive on for a lifetime,” the chef told IANS.

He added: “There is no other food habit… whether you consume only meat or only carbohydrates, you cannot survive on that for your entire life. We can get everything from the variety of fruits.”

Suggesting a fruit diet, the chef said: “You can start your day with papaya, grab an apple or pear whenever hungry and have a watermelon whenever you are thirsty. Watermelon is very good to keep you hydrated. If you want to have something sweet, you can have mango. So, you always have a fruit for every meal.”

Talking about his fruit diet, Sonu said: “Though I am a sarson da saag aur makki ki roti eating Punjabi, fruit has always been a crucial part of my diet since childhood. These pears are seedless and very juicy.”
